Quebec provincial police say six people are dead and eight were wounded after shots were fired inside a mosque on Sunday night during evening prayers.
Sûreté du Québec Sgt. Christine Coulombe says the victims range in age from 35 to 70.
Thirty-nine people escaped the Islamic cultural centre of Quebec in the Sainte-Foy neighbourhood without injuries, according to Coulombe.
Both Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Quebec government have called the shooting an act of terrorism.
Earlier in the evening, Quebec City Police Const. Étienne Doyon said mostly men were gathered inside the mosque when the shooting began just before 8 p.m.
A witness, who asked to remain anonymous, told CBC's French-language service Radio-Canada that two masked individuals entered the mosque.
"It seemed to me that they had a Québécois accent. They started to fire, and as they shot they yelled, 'Allahu akbar!' The bullets hit people that were praying. People who were praying lost their lives. A bullet passed right over my head," said the witness.

Not necessarily a convert; when Marc Lepine shot up the college class in Montreal in 1989, they called him a Canadian (he was born there) but he had an Algerian father and Marc’s real name was Gamil Gharib.
Can anyone understand their French accents well enough to translate?

It’s sure taking the msm a long time to come up with a narrative.
I wonder how fast they’ll turn around and try to crush more freedom now.
Police reports name Bashir al-Taweed and Hasssan Matatyi, Syrians who entered Canada as refugees , as the suspects. They are in custody.
Thats a hoax report.
There is also a hoax report that it was two white supremacists.
Best info is one was Morrocan and one French Canadian.
I should have made the smiley face bigger...
